I don’t think that RFK Jr. is personally a fascist. He’s in league with fascists, which is the main reason why I am still heavily against the autism registry.
I think that RFK Jr. is extremely mentally ill and deluded. I think he is probably a true believer in what he says, it’s just that the stuff he believes is batshit insane (and can do a lot of damage because of that).
This whole situation just makes me laugh because in order to do eugenics with that database, RFK would have to believe that autism is genetic - which it is, but which he doesn’t believe.
I still don’t want the Trump administration to have an autism registry, but it’s such a farce that the guy who doesn’t believe autism is genetic is the guy doing it.
Anyone who knows anything knew that it was blatantly unethical from the start.
Honestly, I’d believe that they probably never fed them antibiotics on purpose, and that they were exposed to antibiotics via their food and/or water supply.
How do you know that you’ve never seen it?
I am almost certain that I’ve missed noticing some AI art. Sometimes I’ve missed noticing it at first only to notice it later. Sometimes I’ve been presented with images that I know are AI-generated but I would probably never have known that otherwise.
For instance, this one (found on an AI art community on Lemmy about a year ago IIRC): 
If I didn’t know that was AI generated from the context, I don’t think I would have suspected a thing (maybe from the extra “road” on the road, but I think that’s the only thing that could give it away for me. And I didn’t notice it at first). Other known AI images as well have been very hard to tell, especially when they have no background.
I am opposed to AI for a lot of reasons, but I think it would be naive to think it could never fool me.
Often times the background of an image gives it away. Like things that should be rectangular but aren’t. On images with plain backgrounds it can be a lot harder to tell sometimes.
He had me at “Return the dignity of work”.
I don’t think that he has any intention to do that, but that would certainly go a long way towards getting people to work like he wants.
I blame that one on the physical design. Probably mandated by Musk. No one who knows about software would make the decision to require the use of software to be able to exit the car. :P
As far as I am aware it is confirmed that the far-right Israeli parties provided funding to Hamas in order to excuse their own crimes. They probably didn’t plan that particular attack, but they’ve been working on the genocide (and the excuses for it) for a long time.
That’s not the platform they ran on. I don’t know what campaign you were watching.
What “identity politics” have the democrats been doing?
I really liked Reddit, getting a lot of value out of the content posted there by people. And I met some cool people through it.
I never got banned from it myself, but as time went on it was very clear that the company in charge of the platform was not steering things in a good direction, and was not responsible for the value I liked. They just captured the value by being the place where people posted. They really drove that point home when they locked off the API, and I completely quit Reddit at that point, migrating to Lemmy instead.
I definitely feel that Lemmy doesn’t have as much value collected on it yet compared to Reddit. There’s just not as many people posting and generating that value. But, it is free of that sort of draconian control that Reddit has. Not just temporarily free, as a favor from venture capital to draw people in. Permanently free. So, if we build up the value of Lemmy by having more people post here, we will be able to enjoy that value free from the corpo BS.
Thank you for coming to my TED talk. :P
How convenient for his Nazi friend who sells cars made in the US.
It seems like the Trump regime has already not held up its end of the previous deal. He should get less, not more.
Due to budget cuts, “Get into Magic so you won’t have money for drugs.” has now become “Don’t worry about it, you won’t have money for drugs anyways. Or for housing, for that matter.”
I have a lot of experience with ignoring my problems.
Maybe Trump’s plan to get Mexico to pay for the wall is to make America so shitty that they want a wall to keep Americans out. XD
22 countries have never been invaded by the British yet.
Transphobes: This is totally new, people made it up a few years ago.
Also transphobes: If ancient people were like this there’s no way we could tell.
I think there’s something deeper to not being able to remember them, like the brain not writing memories of them or something. Then again, my memory is particularly bad and some aspects of it are completely non-functional, so that could explain my experience.
